I currently have a Teclast laptop that I imported and wiped to put Linux on. Worked out of the box.
Previous system was a Chromebook Pixel LS. Ran like a champ.
It's not difficult to get a Debian derivative running on virtually any system by this point. And that's what PopOS is. A Ubuntu spin. You think they're putting work into the kernel for hardware support? Hah. Nope. They're not.
Linux Focused? Well, if you want Linux that badly, you'll find a way to make it happen. It's easier to install Ubuntu onto a system than it is to install Windows 10.
If it means I have to buy a Dell XPS13 and format Windows first, at least I know I'll be getting higher quality hardware at a lower price instead.
System76 is Clevo garbage. Garbage with Linux is still garbage.
